In 1914 Otto Hieronimus manufactured the six cylinder Hiero E engine, which was directly derived from the 4 cylinder engines designed leaving from 1908, at Laurin & Clement and then at Werner Pfleider.
The propulsor showed typical constructive features typical of vertical line six cylinder units: aluminium bed, cast iron cylinder, release by two valves per cylinder controlled by bars and rockers, with the cam-shaft in the bed, dual start by two Bosch magnets. The engine was assembled on the Albatros B 1 biplane and then on Löhner M and L seaplanes and on the Llpyd CII scout biplane

Wow, that's a great picture and even better site. I tried backing up a level

Subject: Modelkrak Russian WW1 armored cars
Message-ID: <200005021244.IAA21971@pease1.sr.unh.edu>
I just received all three Modelkrak 1/72nd Russian WW1 armored cars in
the mail yesterday, and wanted to comment.
If you enjoy on topic armor, and would like to build these, then *RUN*,
don't walk, to your nearest, favorite hobby shop (on-line or whatever)
and buy these. These are excellent. Think of Hawkeye and Rosemont
resin quality for armor - then make it about 10% better. :-)
Seriously, these are excellent kits, and well worth the money (don't
forget Mighty Military Miniatures is having a 25% off sale on
Modelkrak).
I haven't found *any* airholes yet, and all parts are superbly cast.
Unlike the earlier Modelkrak models, all parts are in resin.
Instructions are ok (probably the worst part of the kits) but the parts
are complete. The most time spent on these will be sanding the parts -
especially the one piece main body and chassis - from their pour
blocks.
If I didn't have so many aircraft models to build for review, I would
be working on one of these now. There are three cars so far in the
series:
"GARFORD - PUTILOV", "AUSTIN - THE FIRST SERIES" and "RUSSIAN AUSTIN".
The Garford-Putilov is a bigger "car" (more like a truck) that appears
to mount a largish howitzer-type cannon, instead of the machine guns
found on the other two. It's a very large model, with plenty of parts.
Here's a link that you can see just what I'm talking about:
http://www.jadar.com.pl/html/firmy/mkrak/cars72-a.htm
In addition, don't forget about the book I mentioned in an earlier
post. It will definitely help with the construction of these cars.
The only disadvantage to all cars is that the "cabs" are molded
"closed" - in other words, all armor protection is down, and there's no
way to see into the interior. That's great if you want a quick build
without worrying about an interior, but if you wanted to superdetail an
interior, you would have to do some major parts surgery. Hmmm... :-)

It's good to hear about the spandaus up front. I'd be interested in how you

the conversion to the rotary engine. What color is the interior?

Anyone out there recall when and where it might have been?

Armada has done a book on the type, which is quite decent. Plus,
Albatros Pubs (the folks that bring you the Windsock mag and Datafiles)
has produced Classics vol.3 specifically on the type. Between the two
I would suspect you would have everything you would need.
There was also some info in the FMP tome on the IRAS.
Further references will have to wait until I get home and have access
to my database.

Speaking of sub warfare, I like the tricky boats the Brits used to sink
U-boats - I forget the class - K-boats or R-boats or something - the ones
that looked like freighters and when the sub surfaced to shell the boat,
the deckhouses would drop away and the sub was faced with 6 and 8 pound guns
